Yella Beezy on trial for Dallas rapper MO3's murder

Testimony in the murder-for-hire trial involving Dallas rapper Yella Beezy began on Tuesday. FOX 4's Alex Boyer has more from the first day of testimony. DALLAS - Testimony got underway on Tuesday in the trial for Yella Beezy, who is accused of orchestrating the murder of rival Dallas rapper MO3. Yella Beezy, whose real name is Markies Conway, allegedly paid Kewon White to gun down MO3, whose real name is Melvin Noble, in an ambush on Interstate 35 in Dallas in 2020. After both sides presented their opening statements to the jury on Tuesday morning, many of the same witnesses from White’s capital murder trial in September returned to the stand. But the state must present this as a new case for a different jury. In other words, they can’t make assumptions about what the jury does or does not know. Some of the most compelling testimony came from a woman who witnessed the deadly encounter…

Risks spelled out for Anthropic investors include possible harms from runaway AI

Any time a company looks to start selling shares on Wall Street, it’s required to disclose potential risks for investors. In the case of artificial intelligence giant Anthropic, that has included the possibility that its products could threaten nothing less than humanity itself. The risks laid out by the San Francisco company in its filing Monday with the Securities and Exchange Commission included discussion of bad actors potentially using AI models to build deadly weapons or the technology itself going rogue with untold consequences. Of the 335 pages outlining Anthropic’s finances, executive compensation, dividend policy and the like, 93 pages are devoted to “risk factors” — the things that could hurt potential shareholders’ investments. Rival SpaceX’s listed risk factors, in comparison, took up 38 out of more than 250 pages. In selling itself to investors, Anthropic presents its own…

The 55-year-old actor, best known for ER and HBO’s The Pitt, has been named People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2026. The news was announced on Amy Poehler’s Good Hang podcast, where the longtime ER fan unveiled the cover before Noah joined her. Noah was not expecting the new title and initially thought someone was pulling a prank on him. "I thought that sounded like a prank — just not in a million years did I think that this would be an honor bestowed on me," he told the publication. Taking the news in his stride, the actor joked about what the title might bring, before admitting that his friends and family would have plenty to say about it. “I hope this changes everything.
